Tutorial: Recycled jeans sunglasses case

Claire from Pillar Box Blue shows how you can make a sunglasses case out of an old pair of jeans. It’s made from the top of the jeans, and you’ll end up with a bonus pocket on the front of your glasses case. Each one takes just half of the top of the jeans – so each pair of jeans will make 2 sunglasses cases. And you’ll have plenty of denim left over in the legs for another cool denim recycling project.
